HP pavilion bc513tx keyboard backlight keeps turning off

[Leo65]

The keyboard backlight keeps turning off after 30sec. Is there anyway to change the timeout settings?. Its really annoying.

@Leo65, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Turn on or off the backlight

If your notebook computer has a backlit keyboard, press the F5 or F4 (some models) key on the keyboard to turn the light on or off. It might be necessary to press the fn (function) key at the same time.

If the backlight icon  is not on the F5 key, look for the backlit keyboard key on the row of function keys.

Refer to this document for more info.

Also, go to BIOS screen and check if you have an option that says ADVANCED > Built-in Device Options > Backlit Keyboard Timeout. (This option is not available in all HP PCs)

Let me know how this goes.
